Cataract Surgery in Cancun
What is cataract surgery like?
This procedure involves removing the aging lens and then replacing it with an artificial intraocular lens (IOL). Cataract surgery is usually performed under topical anesthesia (with anesthetic drops applied directly to the patient's eye). It is a simple eye procedure that typically takes no more than 10 minutes. Recovery from surgery is generally rapid, with good results achieved within a few days, but these parameters can vary depending on each individual case.
Seeing the world clearly is not just a privilege, it is a new way of living.
Cataract surgeries in Cancun
- Phacoemulsification (the most common)
- Ultrasound is used to break down the cataract and then it is removed through a small incision.
- Extracapsular extraction
- A larger incision is made to remove the entire cataract, usually used in advanced cases.
